Pretty amazing. We bought this washer to replace our old set that we bought over 30 years ago when we first got married. This one, like other new washers, does not wash quite like the older ones. Rather than running constantly, it more or less pulses. I've seen this in other top loaders too, as I believe this is a way of energy conservation (if the motor is only running half the time, only about half of the energy usage). So in spite of my concerns of getting the clothes clean, it does an incredible job! I never remember getting my dirty work clothes so clean, in such a short ammount of time, with nothing involved other than putting the clothes in, adding soap and waiting about 30 for clean clothes. Between this and the matching dryer, I have seen energy consumption drop an average of about $15.00 a month (4 adults in our household). Couldn't be happier with this purchase. Seems solid, and well built, and extremely easy to use. No, it doesn't have any "smart" capabilities, but why would you want or even need it? You need to be right there to add clothes, you have to be right there to put them into the dryer. This set is exactly what my wife and I had been looking for.

I have used this washing machine for about a month now. It has a nice large tub and seems to wash items well. Our old front loader broke down after leaking water for a few years. I definitely wanted a top loader and needed something as inexpensive as possible. This GE washer seemed to be the best we could find. Unfortunately, we had to pay for installation and new hoses in order for the warranty to be in tact. The drain hose is not very good as it’s short and took some creative engineering on our part (so much for paying for the installation)to get it to work. Even though the tub is large do not fill it when washing towels or blankets. If they’re too heavy the tub gets unbalanced during the spin cycle. I’ve had to pause the cycle and readjust. It may also discontinue the cycle if the load is too heavy. All in all this is a great washer for someone who prioritizes getting the job done and knows the importance of washing dirty clothes not desiring a “cleansing experience” that makes you feel more important because you can show off your laundry room ;)

Lots of room. Washes well. I think I’m still putting in a lot when I wash sheets and blankets in together because it makes an awful noise. That’s on me I think. User error maybe. Aside from that everything else works fine.

This is the best washing machine I’ve had in a long time. It’s very easy to use even though it has a lot of buttons. It has an agitator so I feel like my clothes are actually getting clean because I just had one with no agitator and it was awful. The laundry loads don’t take all day to wash and they come out smelling fresh. Plus you have a happy little song when you push the start button and when the machine ends.

Basic GE washer no bells and whistles it has options extra spin deep rinse soak I choose this unit with the options invade I had to soak my husband’s work clothes, it’s a little loud doesn’t bother me. I’m able to wash my king bedding it’s perfect it fits in my wash room I am able to access my washing machine. My previous washer had all the bells and whistles it was huge they even had to remove my door and the threshold didn’t last so many issues with the previous washer. I’ve had my GE 4.5 for 23 days I’m happy with my purchase.
